Recently wiki caretakers said that I need to disable 'Store EFB copies to texture only' to remove Madagascar's graphic glitches on non-MMJ builds. On MMJ builds those glitches (e.g. 'mud puddles' in the zoo) do not occur.

Since 5.0-61xx Madagascar works very slow and unplayable (1fps) on Honor 8.

Since 5.0-65xx the left part of the screen is covered with a light blue block (MMJ also) and only switching to Vulkan solves that problem.

On the newest builds Madagascar with Vulkan runs at 5-6fps on non-MMJ builds and at 7-9fps on MMJ builds on Honor 8
unlike Madagascar 2 is much faster with 40% overclock on the same phone.

But on 5.0-5xxx builds Madagascar works faster (close to medium speed) and without that
stupid 'covered screen' bug even on Mali devices including Honor 8.

Why did Madagascar get worse and worse on Mali devices after the build 5.0-6094?
That's why I have to use MMJ as the main Dolphin version and any 5.0-5xxx build just for Madagascar due to Mali GPU

Firstly, we only provide support for official builds. You're free to use whatever fork you want (e.g. MMJ), but you're on your own with any bugs you encounter. Secondly, we already gave you the settings needed for avoiding the graphical glitches in Madagascar, which is disabling "Store EFB Copies to Texture Only" and that's also disabled by default in the Game INI.

If you're still having graphical glitches even after disabling "Store EFB Copies to Texture Only", you're hitting a driver bug (very common on devices using Mali GPUs, which still ships with garbage drivers even nowadays) and there's nothing you can do to fix that other than hoping for future firmware updates to your phone shipping with less buggy GPU drivers.
